- Notes
- One-day community conference. Agenda from the site's 2026 schedule JSON joined to /api/2026/sessions and /api/2026/users (Town Hall sessions omitted; unscheduled placeholder sessions in the API ignored). Sponsors per city from data/2026/sponsors.json; Databricks appears as Gold on the 2026 sponsors page but not in the JSON, so it is listed on every 2026 city without a city split. Auckland prices: $99 early / $175 standard per Ticket Tailor and tickets page, currency not stated (likely NZD) so not recorded. YouTube 2026 playlist is not split by city; a recording is attached to every edition that ran that talk.
